I respectfully do not agree with that statement because it ignores all of the instrumentals that have ever been recorded, including classical music.

I would say "A song is a composition made up of a melody and supporting music, with the intent of the melody, whether it be a vocal or and an instrumental, for the purpose of producing a proportionate feeling or emotion in relation to a particular matter."

This may be splitting hairs but your statement indicates that a song must have a vocal. At least in my mind it did wink
